Are you a new and/or informal group that is led by one of Voice’s target groups? Do you want to learn how to (better) work together? Do you want to work on leadership and/or increasing confidence of and within your group members? Do you want to embark on a journey to change attitudes and/or social norms in Cambodia towards your target group?

If you answered “yes” to the questions above, then consider applying to this Call for Proposals.

What do we wish to fund?

This Call for Proposals will help Voice in Cambodia meet its objectives. Voice will fund projects that focus on the following target groups:

People with disabilities

Lesbian, gay, bisexual, trans-gender, queer and intersex (LGBTQI)

Indigenous people and ethnic minorities

With at least one of the following target groups as a cross-cutting issue?

Age discriminated vulnerable groups notably the young or elderly

Women facing exploitation, abuse and/or violence

Often the most marginalised and discriminated are those who may be vulnerable due to multiple reasons. Therefore, Voice has a strong preference for projects that intend to work with more than one target group to address overlapping vulnerabilities.

Your project can look at any or all of the following themes:

Improved access to (productive) resources (finance, land and water) and employment,

Improved access to social services, health and education in particular, and

Space for political participation and citizen engagement

Your grant can be from €5,000 to €25,000 and from 12 to 24 months in duration.

Applications are only being accepted from locally registered Cambodian organisations as lead applicant. International organisations are not able to be a lead applicant but can team up as a co-applicant in the case of consortium applications.

The (lead) applicant must be target group-led. This means that the target group that the organisation aims to represent governs and manages the organisation and the principle of Nothing About Us Without Us guide the work.

This call for proposals is closed, so application is no longer possible. Please come back here at a later stage to learn about the grantees that have been selected in this call for proposals.

Calls for proposals for Influencing grants will be opened once a year, while for Empowerment, Innovate and Learn and Sudden Opportunity grants we accept proposals on a rolling basis. The current open calls for proposals can be found here.
